Abstract

Citizen insecurity in underdeveloped third world countries is aggravated by poor management of arms control and illegal trafficking, which requires information technology solutions in intelligent video surveillance systems for the detection of lethal weapons. The literature review highlights the need for an intelligent video surveillance system to combat high crime, using fog computing, which processes data in real time for the detection of weapons and other crimes. Furthermore, at an international level, solutions based on artificial intelligence and deep learning are being implemented for object recognition and weapons detection. Therefore, this paper describes the design of an intelligent video surveillance system based on artificial vision, fog and edge computing to detect lethal weapons in domestic environments, performing weapon classification and data transmission to police centers. The intelligent video surveillance system allows detecting lethal weapons and operates in three stages: an edge node with a Raspberry Pi 4; a detection algorithm based on a convolutional neural network with YOLOv5; and streaming tagged images to a security unit via WhatsApp. The main conclusion is that the system achieved a precision greater than 0.85 and a quick and efficient response in sending alerts, representing a scalable and effective solution against home burglary.

Abstract

Wheelchairs are a huge support for the movement of people who have disabilities. The wheelchairs that were traditionally moved using manual effort have given way to powered and smart wheelchairs with various controlling methods. When powered wheelchairs are used indoors, navigation and avoiding obstacles become challenging and tricky for a disabled user. To address these challenges there have been implementations of expensive and high-end systems to make the wheelchair move autonomously but as a result such a wheelchair is not economically viable for many users. Thus, there is a need for an alternative low cost method for users to be able to navigate and move in an indoor environment. The paper reviews low-cost methods for implementing indoor navigation systems, weighing their performances to validate if these methods can be used as a viable alternative to the high-cost systems for autonomous navigation in an indoor environment.

Abstract

In wireless sensor networks (WSNs), optimizing energy consumption, and ensuring efficient data transmission are crucial for network longevity and performance. This paper introduces an enhanced clustering technique for WSNs that aims to extend network lifetime and ensure reliable data delivery. Instead of regular K-Means clustering, we integrate the Silhouette score method to evaluate cluster quality and decide the optimal number of clusters. This improves how nodes are grouped together in the network. Additionally, we strategically select routing paths from cluster heads to the base station that minimize energy drainage. Comprehensive simulations show our dual optimization approach outperforms standard K-Means in terms of energy efficiency, stable network organization and effective data transmission and overall, the proposed improvements to clustering and routing significantly advance energy-constrained WSNs toward more sustainable and dependable real-world applications.

Abstract

This study focuses on the development of electrical power forecasting based on electricity usage in Wuzhou, China. To develop a forecasting model, the important features need to be identified. Therefore, this study investigates the performance of the feature selection method, focusing on the mutual information as a filter and random forest as a wrapper-based feature selection. From the experiment, six features have been chosen, whereby both feature selection methods chose almost identical features. Later, the selected features are trained and tested with common machine learning models, namely random forest regressor, support vector regression (SVR), k-nearest neighbor (KNN) regressor, and extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost) regressor. The performances of the feature selections tested on each of the models are measured in terms of mean absolute error (MAE), root mean square error (RMSE) and coefficient of determination (R²). Findings from the experiment revealed that XGBoost outperform the other machine learning models with RMSE 0.9566 and R² indicated with 0.2561. However, SVR outperformed XGBoost and other model by obtaining MAE 0.6028. It can be concluded that the performance of filter-based outperformed the embedded feature selection.

Abstract

The increasing demand for reliable cryptographic operations for securing current systems has given birth to well-advanced and developed hardware solutions, in this paper we consider issues within the traditional symmetric advanced encryption standard (AES) cryptographic system as major challenges. Additionally, problems such as throughput limitations, reliability, and unified key management are also discussed and tackled through appropriate hierarchical transformation techniques. To overcome these challenges, this paper presents the design and field programmable gate array (FPGA)-based implementation of a cryptographic coprocessor optimized for substitution box (S-Box) operation which is considered as a key component in many cryptographic algorithms such as AES. The architecture of the co-processor proposed in this article is based on the advanced characteristics of FPGAs to accelerate the S-Box transformation, improve throughput and reduce latency compared to software implementations. We discussed carefully the design considerations along with resource utilization, speed optimization, and energy efficiency. The obtained experimental results present significant performance improvements, the FPGA-based implementation ensured higher throughput and lower execution time compared to traditional central processing unit (CPU)-based methods. We presented in this work the effectiveness of using FPGAs for the acceleration of cryptographic operations in secure applications which will therefore be a robust solution for the next generation of secure systems.

Abstract

The incorporation of artificial intelligence (AI) into the field of medicine has created new strategies in enhancing the detection of disease, with a focus on the identification of eye diseases such as glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, and macular degeneration associated with age, which can lead to blindness if not detected and treated early enough. Driven by the need to combat blindness, which affects approximately 39 million people globally, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). This research offers a web-based, real time approach to classifying eye diseases from fundus images due to user friendliness. Three pre-trained convolutional neural network (CNN) models are adopted, namely ResNet-50, Inception-v3, and MobileNetV3. The models were trained on a dataset of 8000 fundus images subdivided into four classes: cataract, glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, and normal eyes. The performance of the models was evaluated in 3-way (normal eye and two diseases) and 4-way (normal eye and three diseases). ResNet-50 had higher performances, with 98% and 97% accuracy in the respective classifications, compared to InceptionV3 and MobileNetV3. Consequently, ResNet-50 was used in an online application that made real-time diagnoses. This research findings reveal the potential of CNNs in the healthcare industry, particularly in reducing over-reliance on specialists and increasing access to quality diagnostic technologies. Especially in critical areas such as this with limited healthcare resources, where the technology can create significant gaps in disease detection and control.

Abstract

Consumer rights are exploited around the world and it is necessary for to protect consumer rights by means of safeguarding consumers from various unfair trade practices. Those most vulnerable to such exploitation must be shielded, and this is achieved through consumer protection measures. One such example of unethical behavior is fuel stealing at fuel stations. To overcome this critical issue, a low-cost fuel quantity sensing and monitoring system is proposed in this paper. A fuel detection system will ensure the exact quantity of fuel filled in fuel tank and will detect fuel theft, if any, at fuel pumps. An embedded system is developed for this purpose, consisting of sensors, display devices, communication devices and microcontroller. The quantity of fuel filled in the tank is transmitted to mobile phone of the consumer to avoid fuel theft. Performance of the system is validated by comparing the displayed amount of fuel dispensed and actual filled in the tank and achieve 99.95% accuracy. With this consumer right to get the value for amount paid for the petrol will be protected. This novel feature can be added in the fuel tank of the smart vehicle development and design as a future scope.

Abstract

The development of physical architecture standards for very large scale integration (VLSI) single and multichip platforms is still in its early stages. To deal with the growing complexity of modern VLSI systems, it has become common practice to split large circuit architectures into smaller, easier-to-manage sub-circuits. Circuit partitioning improves parallel modeling, testing, and system performance by lowering chip size, number of components and interconnects, wire length (WL), and delays. VLSI partitioning's primary goal is to split a circuit into smaller blocks with as few connections as possible between them. This is frequently accomplished by recursive bi-partitioning until the required complexity level is reached. Thus, partitioning is a fundamental circuit design challenge. An efficient remedy that offers a heuristic method that explores the design space to iteratively enhance outcomes is evolutionary computation. In order to minimize WL, area, and interconnections, we provide an optimized simulated annealing memetic algorithm (OSAMA) that combines local search methods with evolutionary tactics. The efficiency of the method was evaluated using criteria like runtime, cost, delay, area, and WL. OSAMA's ability for effective partitioning is demonstrated by experimental results, which confirm that it dramatically lowers important design parameters in VLSI circuits.
